    SICK OF GETTING BAD


    RESULTS WITH
    CHATGPT?

    HERE ARE 6 STRATEGIES


    OPEN AI RECOMMENDS:
    JUSTIN CHIA

    WRITE CLEAR
    INSTRUCTIONS
    Clear, detailed instructions lead to
    more accurate model outputs.

    Specify your needs, like format,


    length, or expertise level, to reduce
    ambiguity.

    Example: Instead of saying "Tell me


    about climate change,"

    specify with: "Write a 200-word


    summary on the impacts of climate
    change on Arctic wildlife."
    JUSTIN CHIA

    INCLUDE DETAILS
    AND EXAMPLES
    Provide detailed queries, examples,
    and specify desired output lengths
    to get relevant answers.

    Adopting a persona or using


    delimiters can also clarify distinct
    input parts.

    Example: For a detailed response,


    ask, "Explain the theory of relativity
    as if you were a physics professor,
    using examples from everyday life."
    Include delimiters like "Theory:",
    "Examples:", and "Conclusion:" to
    organize your request.
    JUSTIN CHIA

    PROVIDE
    REFERENCE TEXT
    Providing reference text helps them
    generate more accurate responses

    Language models can fabricate


    answers, especially on esoteric
    topics.

    Example: When asking about a


    complex topic like quantum
    mechanics, you might say, "Using
    'Quantum Physics for Dummies' as
    a reference, explain quantum
    entanglement in simple terms."
    JUSTIN CHIA

    SPLIT COMPLEX
    TASKS
    Break down complex tasks into
    simpler subtasks for better
    accuracy. This modular approach
    reduces error rates.

    Example: For a complex task like


    planning a trip, break it down:

    "1. Suggest three destinations for a


    family holiday.
    2. Outline a 5-day itinerary for the
    top destination.
    3. Provide a budget breakdown for
    the trip."
    JUSTIN CHIA

    GIVE THE MODEL


    TIME TO THINK
    Allowing time for reasoning and
    asking for a 'chain of thought' leads
    to more accurate answers.

    This process mirrors human


    problem-solving.

    Example: For a math problem, ask,

    "Can you walk me through the steps


    of how you calculate the area of a
    circle with a radius of 5cm?" This
    encourages a chain-of-thought
    response.
    JUSTIN CHIA

    USE EXTERNAL TOOLS


    AND TEST CHANGES
    SYSTEMATICALLY
    Utilizing tools like text retrieval
    systems and code execution
    engines can augment the model's
    capabilities. GPT-4 has Code
    Interpreter built in.

    Example: For a coding task, specify,


    "Please use the Python environment
    to write and test a script that sorts a
    list of numbers."

    To test changes, you could provide a


    set of lists to ensure the script works
    correctly in different scenarios.
